Shadowflame

[Orangeflame]

For those of you who aren't familiar with it:
Shadowflame is a damage type that is half fire, half darkness; there is nothing special about it.
AFAIK, it is only found on "infernal--" greater-ego staffs, and from the "Darkfire" corrupter spell.

I believe it is meant to be a 'demonic' fire-like damage type, but demonfire (Infernal Breath, Fearscape, 'Fearstar') fits that niche more closely.
I think it would be a good idea merge the two damage types, and changing all shadowflame to demonfire.

Pros:
One fewer special damage types that isn't really special.
More demonfire damage, which I believe is cooler, and more worthy of being a special damage type.
Corrupters would be able to use Darkfire without blasting themselves into pieces half the time.

Cons:
Corrupters would gain another heal that also deals damage.

I like this idea.

So a damagetype that deals half fire and half darkness and heals demons?
Good idea

Didn't even notice there's a separate demonfire damage type, but having one less special (predictive text input suggested sexual, then social, before it changed it to special :p) damage type part sold me this idea.

Demonfire deals 100% fire damage, which heals demons for the amount that would have been dealt (I think it is also affected by healing modifier).

Most people know it as 'what fearscape does'.

I know it, but since this new demonfire also take the place of shadowflame, I guess it is good to let it have the feature of shadowflame.

I'd agree with that. For simplicity's sake, i'd suggest making it just fire with the demonheal, renaming Darkfire appropriately, and possibly rebalancing it a bit (as it now both heals them rather than harming them and deals pure fire damage - easier to gear for)

There used to be a Doomsayer addon (really good, too bad it dosent get developed these days) that had a lot of Demonfire damage. it was good stuff. I'd like to see more of it.
